Abstract

A method for proposing at least one transmission rate change including calculating a plurality of latency values, computing at least one derivative-based proposed change from the plurality of latency values, and proposing a rate change selected from the at least one derivative-based proposed change. Also provided is a system including a rate controller controlling the transmission rate of data between two stations over a network and a rate reporter in communication with the rate controller.
